Face Up For Our Future<\/strong>
Face Up For Our Future is a virtual protest campaign running alongside the 7 March Nationwide day of Action. It’s easy – download and print off this file<\/a>, then write in how you describe yourself – a nurse, a worker, a husband, a mother, a dentist, a concerned citizen, a peacemaker (the list is endless) – and take a photo of yourself holding the sign. Then either upload it to our facebook group<\/a>\u00a0or email us<\/a> and we’ll take it from there. And be sure to include the hashtags #TPPANoDeal, #TPPANoWay and #FaceUpForOurFuture!

This is a great way to support the campaign and already an impressive array of people have put their face to the cause. We will have some roving camera people working on getting snaps at some of our protests, and\u00a0it’s also a great way to support us if you can’t make it to a march.

Check out this awesome video<\/a> made by the super-cool Front Line Arts Collective using footage from around the country to raise awareness about the Nationwide Day of Action.

PM Key confronted in Christchurch<\/strong>
Remember when John Key was confronted by protesters while speaking to an audience of farmers\u00a0in Oxford\u00a0a few weeks ago? Well it turns out somebody captured his description of the TPPA on video<\/a>, where he conveniently missed out describing most of the chapters of the agreement and their impact on NZ. However he wasn’t able to get away with this, and a few weeks later in Christchurch was confronted by a giant plain-packaged cigarette packet asking for answers on TPPA’s Investor-State Dispute Settlement Provisions. Check out the video here!<\/a>
